2012—What a year!!!!
KYC along with many other wonderful organisations has been changed through the State
Governments efforts to reduce debt. Programs have been significantly reduced across the State
along with the loss of many highly skilled and dedicated youth and community work staff. These
changes have affected what KYC has the capacity to do and what we have delivered for the past 6
years. This sees a new KYC for 2013 with our focus always working towards being able to provide the
services and programs to the communities that we serve for the future. KYC wishes all of the
dedicated workers and services that have been affected, all the best in future endeavours and
remember to look out for self and others in these difficult times.
In times of change comes diversity and KYC is working on a number of projects to work through the
changes and to move forward with innovation and positive development. We will keep the
community and sector informed as we go.
Ki Hara & The Rekoncile Krew Dance Troupe News!
An exciting end to 2012 for the KYC dance krews with The Rekoncile Krew being awarded Best New

Bribie Island children, young people and families enjoyed an end of 2012 celebration with bas-
ketball, skate park activities, lagoon of death ride, fairy floss, slushies, great food, games and
fun. The week before saw a youth movie night with hot popcorn and dinner. The staff and vol-
unteers of the youth centre put on these events with support of Moreton Bay Regional Council.
Sadly, due to the funding cuts that were advised in the Big Changes section, It is with heavy
hearts that KYC has handed the keys back to Council on 14 December 2012 as we cannot sus-
tain the centre without funding. We hope that a service or other arrangement can be made for
the young people of Bribie Island quickly and that quality activities and programming can be pro-
vided as it is a huge need and especially with the growth and changing population of the Island.
The past 6 years have been a pleasure in working with so many young people, families and chil-
dren for the activities and events held on top of the youth programs. The positive outcomes for
young people through case management, life and personal skills development, pre-employment,
further education and training, literacy and numeracy and career / employment support has
seen over 600 supported plus the families and children’s activities that have seen 1000’s at-
tend and enjoy.
I thank the wonderful staff that have worked on the Island and lived on the Island of which they
were very much part of the community both in their work roles and as residents. The volunteers
that have supported programs and activities are to be commended for their community spirit
and dedication and are truly valuable contributors to the Island and the family orientated culture
of caring for others. A huge THANK YOU and sad farewell to all that were part of the programs
and youth centre activities with KYC.

KYC is working with the Beachmere community to provide activities for young people. Fundrais-
ers in partnership with individuals, community groups and businesses have seen funds raised
